  1. Guess who joined on June 22, 2003...
  2. ControTempo have never let me down; they filled all but one of my orders.
  3. No problem here either (IE6)
  4. Some just aren't fans of Rudy's remastering. Sure, some aren't homeruns, a FEW duds (A Fickle Sonance). But the majority are beautiful, some superb. The notion that Rudy's hearing has suffered high end loss seems pretty crazy. Well, for what it's worth, one of Rudy's Dutch relatives told me about his (alleged) hearing loss. If it's true, I haven't the slightest idea if it has any impact on his work. All I know is that I don't like his Blue Note remasters (it seems I disagree with Chuck here); like I said on other occasions they give me a severe headache, and that's not what I would call "enjoying music". Oh, and by the way, my hearing's fine: I recently had it checked by a specialist, and it's still in excellent condition despite my age (I'm 56)
  5. Yep, it is the Douglas material. If my memory serves me right, Fuel2000 is a Universal imprint; at least it's distributed by Universal.
  6. Lon, Just go to the right-hand bottom of any page of your thread. There you'll find "Moderation options": select "Delete this topic", click on "Go" and Bob's your uncle (so to speak )
  7. You could always go hunting after 78s...
  8. So all you need now is an SACD version...
  9. As far as I know they're two different persons: the bandleader Johnny Spence, who had a U.K. hit with his orchestra with the instrumental Theme from Dr Kildare in 1962 (I guess he's the one you're referring to), and the bassist Johnny Spence, who played with U.K. rock band Johnny Kidd & the Pirates; they had a couple of U.K. hits in 1960 and again in 1963. I can't find any info on the bandleader.
  10. Great choice! This is an absolutely wonderful disc, that's regularly available from CDUniverse.
  11. Interview with Johnny Spence, the Pirates' bass player
  12. Sad indeed, he was a great character
  13. Lucinda Williams - Koch (1988) Sweet Old World - Chameleon / Elektra (1992) Car Wheels on a Gravel Road - Mercury (1998) Essence - Lost Highway (2001) World without Tears - Lost Highway (2003)
  14. Good to see you here, Gary. Welcome! Hope everything works out and you'll be able to limit the damage. All the best and good luck!
  15. Another good Malcolm Addey job.
  16. Another sad loss
  17. The Japanese JazzLine, the Black Lion and the OJC are CD reissues of the same album; the first two have alternate takes in addition to the original album, the OJC only has the master takes.
  18. But I do have the recording. There were two cylinders? No, there's only the original and a CDR.
  19. Same here...
  20. Just got an e-mail from Justine: 4 out of 5 shipped. Nice. Thanks Justine.
  21. I think so too.
